Nice "pentagon"

Is that a known type or is that something that has been repurposed?

Is it thin? I have found something similar, but it was thin. I really don't know what it was meant to be.

Nice point. If that was found in nc it would be a jacks reef or pee dee. Nice find.

Here is a picture of it. Even though it's broken, you can still tell it was straight on the sides. It measures 1 3/4" at widest, and 1/4" thick.

Really nice. I haven't ever seen one like that.

That is an interesting point. Thanks for sharing.

first one I've ever seen being that square. good post and find

 

[mainejman]

I have one kind of like it but the point is off center enough to lead me to believe it was reworked.

Thats what we call them also and are considerd to be actual arrow points. They are nice and thin and straight like most triangles. Most collections from here contain a few examples of the type.

Here is a small one I found in 2013. Pee Dee and Pentagon which ever you choose to call them. Mine is resharpened to a nub.
